A satellite built to measure Earth’s water has started answering a different kind of question. “What’s the shape of water?” ...

Tectonic geomorphology is the study of the interplay between tectonic and surface processes that shape the landscape in regions of active deformation and at time scales ranging from days to millions ...

What's the shape of water? In 2022, NASA launched the Surface Water and Ocean Topography (SWOT) satellite to answer this question by precisely measuring the height and extent of bodies of water.

The size and morphology of coastal dunes is dependent on the complex interaction between controlling winds, sediment supply, and the geomorphology of the nearshore and beach environment. At the most ...

Geomorphology helps us understand how rivers, coasts, mountains and landscapes change over time, and how people live ...

"Geomorphology is the study of processes that shape the Earth's surface, move water and sediment around and result in landforms we see around us. We live on an extremely dynamic planet where constant ...

Geomorphology is the study of the evolution of the Earth’s surface. We address a wide array of landscapes with an equally broad set of tools and methods. We study the weathering of rock to produce ...

Outgrowth of the 2007 GeoHab meeting held in Noumea, New Caledonia. Cf. pref. Why map benthic habitats? / Peter T. Harris and Elaine K. Baker -- Habitat mapping and marine management / Elaine K. Baker ...

Sandstone landscapes, with their intricate forms and textures, offer an excellent window into the processes that shape our planet’s surface. The evolution of these formations is governed by a ...

Geomorphology is “the scientific study of landforms and the processes that shape them“, which seems to make Google Earth an excellent tool for that kind of work. Holly Dolliver recently wrote a paper ...
